Disregard for Safety
January 18, 2022Company wants money only and will ignore safety concerns. Car almost hit twice on ramps and company refused to change parking to one of many other spots. We left lease early and found much better housing. Keep looking!Review from Apartments.com
So annoying traffic noises
September 29, 2021this apt is just right along with the street, traffic noises is really a big problem. Cant even have a good sleep. The garbage truck will also create a big noises in 7AM in the morning.Review from Apartments.com
Roof fell and water downpour and flooding
June 15, 2021I am a resident at this location. Earlier this month, June 2021, roof fell apart in the middle of the night with heavy water downpour & flooding in my apt as well as several of my neighbors apts. Frequent maintenance issues.Review from Apartments.com
Is this place a joke?
January 28, 2020Kayla @ Meridian at Midtown was horrible to work with. We tried submitting an application but our application was denied because the paystubs were not "True ADP" paystubs. Her exact reasoning was "I know what ADP paystubs look like." And on top of that, it seemed like she kept trying to make stuff up to back up her accusations, saying things like, "the math doesn't add up", or the "address is wrong", even though our office is Googleable and we got the paystubs directly from our HR team. All the ...stories of a bad management team seem to be true here. If you don't want to have a problem with your apartment management team, avoid this place at all costs.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
No maintence
October 19, 2018How hard is it to get rid of garbage and mop a few floors? Essex bought this place and immediately cut maintenance in less than half. Its a nice building to live in , just a rally cheap and bad ownerReview from Apartments.com
Decent but be cautious
March 18, 2016I have lived at M@M for about 8-9 months and it has been a rollercoaster. There are great things about this place. However, there are a lot of red flags as well. Pros: The maintenance staff and most of the leasing staff are absolutely wonderful. They are helpful, efficient, and very nice (to the extent they can help). I would like to particularly call out Andy in maintenance and Jenny and Monique in the leasing office. They have made my experience here much better than I would have had given ...everything else that happened (more about that in the cons). Andy went out of his way to help me during his off hours and made sure that a major emergency (repeated) was resolved in a timely manner (we are talking about helping me with a plumbing situation at 2am). Jenny made sure that my leasing agreement and monthly payments were properly adjusted after a lot of back and forth of what I was promised and what I kept getting in my statements. Monique helped me a lot, making sure that I was comfortable with moving to a new apartment (due to the plumbing incidents) and that all the paperwork was communicated to the manager in a timely fashion. So, yes, these three are key in having a good customer experience at this location. The facility itself is very nice and has great amenities. The pool is nice, quant, and clean. They have three fitness centers with some decent workout gear. Overall has a nice hotel feel. The security has gotten better and the place is pretty tightly managed with daily security guards after a few break-in incidents. Given the gentrification of the neighborhood, this is to be expected. Cons: The living conditions of some of these apartments are not optimal. There are plumbing issues to watch out for in the first floor (granted it is due to other tenants in the building dumping wipes and other items down the toilet) that causes flooding into some of the apartments. I recommend that you do not rent any apartments from 140-148 unless they can make changes. Three apartments have already been flooded on that floor. The staff at this place is doing their job. Overall, it is a pretty decent place (and yes I am saying this after being flooded) and the staff takes care of emergencies pretty efficiently. Just make sure you get all the facts of the apartment before signing up. If it weren't for so many incidents I would have given this place 5 stars coz the location, convenience, maintenance staff / leasing reps and price are comparable in this market.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
Meridian at Midtown
August 14, 2015The apartment itself are very nice but very overpriced like everything in this area. They seemed to be understaffed in a couple of places, maintenance is 2 people, security is also hit or miss, they just hired another firm to supplement the 1 rent a cop they had on duty at night. We have had vehicles stolen and robbed in the secured garage. On the plus side the dog park is a great feature, and the pool area, and common areas are really nice. Location is awesome, and leasing staff is very friendly ...and helpful. BTW my rent is higher then your max weekly payment, welcome to the silicon valley.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
